Google is so good at branding bro, their payment service originally called Google Wallet was rebranded to Android Pay when Apple Pay launched, then was rebranded again to Google Pay, and then was rebranded once again back to Google Wallet, but this time Google Wallet only refers to the app that you use to store bank and other payment/loyalty cards while the service/payment method that actually allows you to spend money via contactless on your phone and online with Google is still called Google Pay (also sometimes styled as GPay). Also don’t forget that in some markets like the US have a different Google Pay logo which is again different from the other Google Pay, also the US Google Pay is usually referred to as GPay. There was also Google Pay Send, which is technically the actual ancestor to the original Google Wallet, as it was only a service to send and receive money rather than a full on payment method like Google Pay is. Makes sense, right?
